The Last Detective

Rezensionen / Stimmen

THE LAST DETECTIVE is literally a thrill-a-minute read. Crais is on top form, which, believe me, is about as good as it gets. Don't miss it * INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY * An exciting tale of kidnap and revenge... Crais is a fine storyteller * SUNDAY TELEGRAPH * A classic. The story is shrewdly plotted and sharply written ... THE LAST DETECTIVE is a rare treat * WASHINGTON POST * Brilliant and convincing detective work, suspense that erupts in shoot-out in abandoned airport. Deeply satisfying stuff ... It's the stuff of heroes, the rare meat of crime fiction. Crais lets his convictions show and delivers a prime cut * LITERARY REVIEW * THE LAST DETECTIVE is US crime fiction at its most enjoyable - fast, funny where it needs to be and leaving the reader with a craving for more * ENIGMA * The narrative gradually ratchets up the tension to the limits of the endurable, and the final showdown could hardly be more exciting * EVENING STANDARD * An enjoyable, well-plotted thriller * TIME OUT * THE LAST DETECTIVE reads as its specially-trained heroes move - phenomenally fast . . . Crais serves up a brilliant thriller which is perfect for both long-time fans and new recruits . . . Crais has brought back his bestselling heroes with a pacy and tautly-written thriller, and the perfect plot to show off their tracking skills in the concrete jungle of LA * IRISH EXAMINER * The narrative is taut, the menace palpable, the suspense unbearable * DAILY TELEGRAPH * A satisfying thriller, this, for Crais always manages to concoct an engrossing story * IRISH TIMES * The tension is racked up from the very start . . .The pace is not just fast, it's hyperfast . . . The ending proves that this is a thriller with a heart * OBSERVER *
